Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Capstone Concept for Joint Operations describes in broad terms my vision for how the joint force circa 2016-2028 will operate in response to a wide variety of security challenges. It proposes that future joint force commanders will combine and subsequently adapt some combination of four basic categories of military activity -- combat, security, engagement, and relief and reconstruction -- in accordance with the unique requirements of each operational situation. The concept is informed by current strategic guidance, but because it looks to the future, it is intended to be adaptable, as it must be, to changes in that guidance.

Book excerpt: The Capstone Concept for Joint Operations (CCJO) is the overarching concept of the family of joint concepts that guides the development of future joint capabilities. Its purpose is to lead force development and employment primarily by providing a broad description of how the future joint force will operate. Service concepts and subordinate joint operating, functional, and integrating concepts will expand on the CCJO solution. Interagency and multinational partners may use it to assess potential integration requirements and opportunities. The CCJO broadly describes how future joint forces are expected to operate across the range of military operations in 2012-2025 in support of strategic objectives. It applies to operations around the globe conducted unilaterally or in conjunction with multinational military partners and other government and nongovernment agencies. It envisions military operations conducted within a national strategy that incorporates all instruments of national power. This concept is applicable to combatant commands, the Military Services, Defense agencies, and the Joint Staff for concept development and experimentation. The CCJO briefly describes the environment and military problem expected to exist in 2012-2025 (from just outside the future years defense program to 20 years in the future). It proposes a solution to meet challenges across the range of military operations and describes key characteristics of the future joint force. This concept concludes by presenting risks and implications associated with this concept.

Book excerpt: The fundamental purpose of military power is to deter or wage war in support of national policy. In these capacities, military power is a coercive instrument, designed to achieve by force or the threat of force what other means cannot. While it may be employed in more benign ways for a variety of important purposes across a wide range of situations, these other uses should not be allowed to imperil its ultimate ability to wage war.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Joint Staff, J7 Joint Experimentation, Transformation, and Concepts Division asked the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA) Joint Advanced Warfighting Program (JAWP) to evaluate how adequately the Capstone Concept for Joint Operations (CCJO) covers joint command and control (JC2). The CCJO heads the family of joint operations concepts (JOpsC) that describe how joint forces are expected to operate across the range of military operations in 2012-2025. Its purpose is to lead force development and employment primarily by providing a broad description of how the future joint force will operate. The IDA study team first evaluated the CCJO itself relative to JC2. The team then reviewed current doctrine, operations, planning, and activities with JC2 content -- the Universal Joint Task List (UJTL), Multi-Service Force Deployment (MSFD) Scenarios, wargames, and experiments -- for possible insight that might inform the next revision of the CCJO. These sources proved generally unhelpful. The study team then examined advanced theoretical work, especially the OSD Command and Control Research Program (CCRP), for insight. This proved very useful and provided a theoretical framework of possible future JC2. Next the team reviewed concepts subordinate to the CCJO that have JC2 content, particularly the C2 functional and integrating concepts. Both were consistent with the CCRP framework and were conceptually ahead of the CCJO. Finally, the team examined selected Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency C2 work and activities at JFCOM. Both reinforced the correctness of the direction reflected in the CCRP and the subordinate JC2 concepts. In answering four specific sponsor-directed questions related to doctrinal command structures, capability gaps, treatment of C2 in the CCJO, and subordinate C2 concepts, the study team reached four conclusions indicating that greater clarity regarding future JC2 is needed in the CCJO.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Based on a loss of intellectual capital and the current gaps in the area of joint professional military education and training, the Joint Force will never meet the intent of The Capstone Concept for Joint Operations: Joint Force 2020 (CCJO). To stem the loss of joint intellectual capital and prepare the future force to meet the intent of CCJO through the execution of globally integrated operations, improvements need to be made to the services' existing professional military education programs, follow-on leader professional development programs between PME attendance, and career progression and talent management processes used to identify and select officers for joint assignments."--Abstract.

This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mission of the United States Army is to fight and win our nation's wars by providing prompt, sustained land dominance across the full range of military operations and spectrum of conflict in support of combatant commanders. Accomplishing this mission rests on the ability of the Army to equip and move its forces to the battle and sustain them while they are engaged. Logistics provides the backbone for Army combat operations. Without fuel, ammunition, rations, and other supplies, the Army would grind to a halt. The U.S. military must be prepared to fight anywhere on the globe and, in an era of coalition warfare, to logistically support its allies. While aircraft can move large amounts of supplies, the vast majority must be carried on ocean going vessels and unloaded at ports that may be at a great distance from the battlefield. As the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have shown, the costs of convoying vast quantities of supplies is tallied not only in economic terms but also in terms of lives lost in the movement of the materiel. As the ability of potential enemies to interdict movement to the battlefield and interdict movements in the battlespace increases, the challenge of logistics grows even larger. No matter how the nature of battle develops, logistics will remain a key factor. Force Multiplying Technologies for Logistics Support to Military Operations explores Army logistics in a global, complex environment that includes the increasing use of antiaccess and area-denial tactics and technologies by potential adversaries. This report describes new technologies and systems that would reduce the demand for logistics and meet the demand at the point of need, make maintenance more efficient, improve inter- and intratheater mobility, and improve near-real-time, in-transit visibility. Force Multiplying Technologies also explores options for the Army to operate with the other services and improve its support of Special Operations Forces. This report provides a logistics-centric research and development investment strategy and illustrative examples of how improved logistics could look in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Space Capstone Publication Spacepower: Doctrine for Space Forces, is capstone doctrine for the United States Space Force and represents our Service's first articulation of an independent theory of spacepower. This publication answers why spacepower is vital for our Nation, how military spacepower is employed, who military space forces are, and what military space forces value. In short, this capstone document is the foundation of our professional body of knowledge as we forge an independent military Service committed to space operations. Like all doctrine, the SCP remains subject to the policies and strategies that govern its employment. Military spacepower has deterrent and coercive capacities - it provides independent options for National and Joint leadership but achieves its greatest potential when integrated with other forms of military power. As we grow spacepower theory and doctrine, we must do so in a way that fosters greater integration with the Air Force, Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. It is only by achieving true integration and interdependence that we can hope to unlock spacepower's full potential.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As entrenched bureaucracies, military organizations might reasonably be expected to be especially resistant to reform and favor only limited, incremental adjustments. Yet, since 1945, the U.S. Army has rewritten its capstone doctrine manual, Operations, fourteen times. While some modifications have been incremental, collectively they reflect a significant evolution in how the Army approaches warfare—making the U.S. Army a crucial and unique case of a modern land power that is capable of change. So what accounts for this anomaly? What institutional processes have professional officers developed over time to escape bureaucracies' iron cage? Forging the Sword conducts a comparative historical process-tracing of doctrinal reform in the U.S. Army. The findings suggest that there are unaccounted-for institutional facilitators of change within military organizations. Thus, it argues that change in military organizations requires "incubators," designated subunits established outside the normal bureaucratic hierarchy, and "advocacy networks" championing new concepts. Incubators, ranging from special study groups to non-Title 10 war games and field exercises, provide a safe space for experimentation and the construction of new operational concepts. Advocacy networks then connect different constituents and inject them with concepts developed in incubators. This injection makes changes elites would have otherwise rejected a contagious narrative.
Download or read book The Army Capstone Concept written by Department Army and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of TRADOC Pamphlet (Pam) 525-3-0, The Army Capstone Concept, Operational Adaptability-Operating Under Conditions of Uncertainty and Complexity in an Era of Persistent Conflict, is to describe the broad capabilities the Army will require in the 2016- 2028 timeframe. It describes how the Army will apply available resources to overcome adaptive enemies and accomplish challenging missions in complex operational environments. The evolving operational environment and emerging threats to national security will require continuous assessment of Army modernization. Effective modernization efforts include change across the domains of doctrine, organizations, training, materiel, leadership and education, personnel, and facilities (DOTMLPF). Capabilities, when validated and prioritized, will drive the adaptation and innovation necessary to conduct operations consistent with the ideas in the Army Capstone Concept (ACC). The ACC also establishes the foundation for subordinate concepts that will refine capabilities and identify others essential to ensuring Army combat effectiveness against the full spectrum of threats that the Army, as part of the joint force, is likely to confront in the future.
